Swapping feats with animate dead
while by RAW it shouldn't, do you think it would effectively change the CR of an elf skeleton to take away improved initiative and give it weapon finesse?

Re: Swapping feats with animate dead
Yes, weapon finesse would be stronger than improved initiative for an elf skeleton. I don't think it would be enough to raise its CR though. The skeleton rules say that all skeletons only get improved initiative, so I assume you're making a custom skeleton here.
So you never have to interrupt a game to look up a rule again:

Re: Swapping feats with animate dead
Don't you need +1 BAB for weapon finesse, which skeletons do not have at hitdie 1.
